Out and About

My best friend, Darcy flew into Victoria from Calgary,and she I have spent some time wandering around the city. It's been good weather,albeit freakin' cold! We discovered that to be completely comfy, 4 - 6 layers of thermals and jackets are necessary, and even ankles need to be covered! Despite the sun, views of the city were somewhat underwhelming from the Observatory at the top of Gonzales Hill. (The Observatory always looks cool, though.)
Yesterday, I made Darcy walk way too far....but we were rewarded with some good views of the harbour, the Olympic mountains and fog banks at the Breakwater,and later on, a belated Christmas Dinner hosted by our friends Lori and Peter.
